On February 18, Texas, Minnesota, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska all set records for the most wind-energy produced on a single day. Then, on February 19, all of these states set new records for wind-energy produced. (Note: Iowa leads the nation in the percentage of electricity supplied by wind energy - more than 31 percent.)

There are about 1 million electric vehicles in the world today, but in the next two years, Tesla and Chevy will be selling electric cars that have a range of more than 200 miles; Ford, Volkswagen, Nissan and BMW have invested billions in electric vehicles, while Apple and Google continue to work on the next generation of plug-in cars. On the other hand, OPEC projects that electric vehicles will make up just 1 percent of global car sales in 2040, and Exxon's forecasts are similar. Somebody is going to be very wrong.
